YM778.TV 177 Chapter 177
After spending a night on the throne, Lin Fan didn\'t get much sleep, but still he had to get up to open the store today.
However, it was a good thing they were in a cultivation world where it was much easier to refresh oneself instead of being forced to live on coffee for a day.
After a single round of cultivation, Lin Fan felt his fatigue disappear and he was filled with energy once again.
Then again, with his Platinum Realm cultivation, he would have been alright even if he didn\'t sleep for more than three days in a row. But of course, there was nothing that could replace the rest that he got from natural sleep.
But there was no time to waste at all. After having a quick breakfast with everyone, they headed off to the store in the same beast carriage as yesterday.
When they arrived at the store, it was already surrounded by people.
These people were all either people who were intrigued by the rumours that had spread yesterday or saw the advertising that the Zhu Family and the Monster Trainer Union had posted.
When they saw the beast carriage with the Zhu Family mark, everyone moved aside to let them pass. Then when they saw Lin Fan\'s group come out, they couldn\'t help being surprised by how young Lin Fan was.
But as they went through the crowd, there was a path that was created for Lin Fan\'s group.
Once they reached the door, they found Yu Ning was there waiting for them as they had agreed to yesterday.
Yu Ning had been surprised that her master had allowed her to work for Lin Fan\'s store, but thinking about the display that Lin Fan had put on at his test, she couldn\'t help thinking that it was the right decision. She was a talented person, so naturally she could tell that Lin Fan\'s techniques were revolutionary, they were not something that just anyone could do.
If her master agreed to let her work in this store, it must mean that her master wanted her to see if she could find the secrets to Lin Fan\'s technique. Since this was a mission from her master, she definitely wouldn\'t let him down.
Lin Fan brought Yu Ning into the store and began showing her around. During this time Zhu Tie was assigned the task of bringing the stock to the shelves and cleaning up the front of the store.
Once Lin Fan was finished showing Yu Ning around, although she had many questions that she still wanted to ask, he ignored her and came to Zhu Tie.
Lin Fan knit his brows when he saw that Zhu Tie was still wearing his mask, so he asked, "Zhu Tie, what did we agree on before?"
Zhu Tie flinched when he heard this and he raised one hand to his mask as he asked, "Do I really have to do this? Can\'t I just work in the back?"
Lin Fan said, "No, you\'ll work the register and you\'ll do it with your mask off."
Zhu Tie had a bitter look on his face that was hidden by the mask, but he still took off the mask in the end since he didn\'t dare disobey his grandfather.
Yu Ning had been confused at first when she heard this conversation, but the moment Zhu Tie took off the mask and revealed his face, she was shocked and even more confused.
This was simply the most beautiful man that she had ever seen. Even though she considered herself a beautiful girl, she couldn\'t help feeling inferior in front of Zhu Tie.
But then she couldn\'t help wondering why Zhu Tie insisted on wearing a mask all the time?
Was it because being too beautiful was troublesome?
If only she knew what Zhu Tie was really thinking…
But once everything was set up, it was time for the store to open and Lin Fan opened the gates to the dam, allowing the crowd to flood in.
The crowd quickly came in and walked around the store, but they were soon put off by the high prices of the store just like with the other store.
As for some of the girls, the moment they came in, their eyes were completely captured by Zhu Tie\'s beauty. They gathered around the counter, but not a single person dared to approach.
To them Zhu Tie was so dazzling that it felt like they would be burnt the moment they approached him. All they could do was point and whisper, but of course none of this escaped Zhu Tie\'s eyes.
In Zhu Tie\'s mind, he considered himself very ugly, so he always had the most negative thoughts. Seeing these people point and whisper, he felt that they were whispering bad things about him which made him shrink, but that just made him look even more beautiful.
The sad look on Zhu Tie\'s face made him seem like a dark and brooding angel, which immediately struck the hearts of many girls, making them faint in the arms of their friends.
It didn\'t take long before Zhu Tie\'s picture was spread all over the social media network of Water Pearl City and he took the crown of the most handsome young master, but that was much further.
When the people saw the prices in Lin Fan\'s store, there were plenty of people that complained and even left the store, but that all soon changed when a certain someone came through the doors of the shop.
"Ting a ling"
The bell above the door rang and everyone\'s eyes turned to look at the source of the voice in surprise.
"Owner Lin, I hope I\'m not bothering you."
The one who came in was the president of the Monster Trainer Union and in Water Pearl City, he was someone that everyone recognized.
No one could understand why the president of the Monster Trainer Union would be visiting a shop like this, but what he did next completely shocked them, even stunning them out of their previous shock.
"Owner Lin, I\'ve brought the Master Monster Trainer certificate that I promised to bring yesterday. I do have to apologize for the delay, we really should have gotten it to you yesterday." The president said in a tone that sounded so sincere that no one could tell it was fake, but Lin Fan and the president both knew this was fake.
This was actually something that the president had offered to do for Lin Fan yesterday since he didn\'t mind using his fame to help advertise Lin Fan\'s store. After all, he did kind of owe Lin Fan for lying to him like that.
No one could believe that such a young man was actually a Master Monster Trainer and that he was someone the president personally delivered their certification to.
Just what kind of backing did this young man have to command such respect?
Thinking about Lin Fan\'s prices, now that they knew that he was actually a Master Monster Trainer, they didn\'t seem that expensive at all.
But the shock of the president\'s visit didn\'t stop there.
After exchanging a few words with Lin Fan, the president gestured to an old man beside him who had been patiently waiting and said, "Owner Lin, this is a friend that I\'ve invited along to take a look at your shop. You probably don\'t know him, but he is the foremost expert on alchemy in our Water Pearl City and is a Master Alchemist. Dan Dan, this is Owner Lin that I\'ve told you about."
Dan Dan came forward and took Lin Fan\'s hand before saying, "Owner Lin, you really do have a unique shop here."
Lin Fan could hear the slight tone of disdain in his voice, but he still said, "Master Dan Dan, it truly is an honour for you to visit my store. Would you please take a look at the pet food that we have in our store to see if it is up to your standards?"
Dan Dan had a slight look of disdain in his eyes at first when he heard this, but he had been invited here by the president of the Monster Trainer Union, so he couldn\'t just say no directly.
Dan Dan came over to the pet food display and leaned over to look at the pet food. The moment he took a sniff of the pet food, his eyes opened wide and filled with disbelief.
He quickly looked over the pet food from every angle and the disbelief in his eyes became deeper and deeper.
He picked up that bag of pet food and put it in Lin Fan\'s face as he asked, "Owner Lin, is this really what I think it is."
Lin Fan just said with a smile, "Indeed it is."
Dan Dan had a frantic look in his eyes as he asked, "Could you please teach me a few things about how you made this pet food, I beg of you."
Even though he was someone called the foremost expert on alchemy in Water Pearl City, Dan Dan was someone who was stuck in the Master Alchemist grade. He hadn\'t been able to find a way to break through to the Grandmaster Alchemist grade in ten years, but now there was a trace of hope in front of him in the form of this pet food.
As long as he was able to get some pointers, there was the chance that he would be able to break through.
But Lin Fan\'s words crushed his dreams, "I\'m sorry, this is a special recipe that I use and I can\'t just share it."
Dan Dan had a look of despair as he said, "But, but, but...I\'m begging you, I\'ll take you as a master if that\'s what you want, just give me some inkling of knowledge on how you made this 100% purity pet food."
Still Lin Fan turned him down with a shake of his head.
When Dan Dan wanted to keep begging, the president stepped in and pushed him aside as he said, "Now, now, Master Dan Dan, let\'s not bother Owner Lin too much on the first day of his store opening. How about we go and have a chat first?"
At this, the president dragged Dan Dan out, but Dan Dan looked at Lin Fan just like the Asura Tiger as it had been dragged away.
With this, many people realized that Lin Fan\'s training and pet food weren\'t normal since even the Monster Trainer Union\'s president and even Master Alchemist Dan Dan approved of them.
Many people overcame the hesitation in their hearts and finally decided to pay the high prices for Lin Fan\'s services and goods.
But when business was picking up, there was a voice that rang through the store.
"So this is the broken shop that I\'ve heard so much about."
